Preface

The idea of this book originated from a workshop held at Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, in November 2011. Entitled “Epigraphy of Southeast Asia”, this workshop was organised by the École française d’Extrême-Orient in Kuala Lumpur and the Ikatan Ahli Arkeologi Malaysia (Malaysian Archaeologists Association). The meeting gathered sixteen participants from France, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, the Philippines, and Malaysia. I take the opportunity of this preface to reiterate my gratitude to the Ikatan Ahli Arkeologi Malaysia as co-organiser of the event, as well as to the direction of the École française d’Extrême-Orient and the Embassy of France in Malaysia whose financial support made the workshop possible. In fact it was the first meeting of its kind in Southeast Asia in terms of the variety of the papers presented. Ten par- ticipants to this 2011 workshop have contributed to this volume. Eight other colleagues have agreed to enrich it with their expertise, allowing for the presentation of a more comprehensive survey. My heartfelt thanks to them for their contribution.

My warmest thanks go to the École française d’Extrême-Orient in Paris, especially the director, Yves Goudineau, and Charlotte Schmid, director of publications, who agreed to the publication of this collective volume in the series “Études thématiques”. Many thanks also to Emmanuel Siron, the editorial manager at the École française d’Extrême-Orient, for his patience, advice and unwavering support during the editing and layout phases, and to Diah Novitasari at the École française d’Extrême-Orient in Jakarta for her dedication in accomplishing the layout of this book. My deepest appreciation also goes to the two anonymous referees who have taken the time to read the manuscript and to provide very useful comments for its improvement.

As its title indicates, this book is intended to provide an overview of epigraphy in Southeast Asia. It is impossible to give an accurate figure regarding the volume of inscriptional material available in this region and this is all the more the case if no time limit is fixed as modern inscrip- tions enrich the field every day. However, on the basis of current knowledge, and if inscriptions dating after the nineteenth century are excluded, the body of material comprises tens of thou- sands of documents extending over a chronological range probably exceeding two millennia.

The range of inscriptions is also broad in terms of mediums, languages, scripts, and contents.

Epigraphy is a complex field and it is impossible to cover all the aspects of epigraphic research for such an area as wide as Southeast Asia in one volume. The two main aims of this book are, first to present the current situation of the discipline, notably through a “corpus”

perspective, and secondly to look at the history of the discipline which is just 200 years old in Southeast Asia. Several volumes would be needed to deal with technical issues and other aspects of interest more to specialists.

The hope is that this choice will contribute to drawing the attention of non-specialists, espe- cially students, to this publication, and perhaps to generating vocations.

The Corpus of Inscriptions in the Old Malay Language

Arlo G

École française d’Extrême-Orient

Old Malay can be defined as the variant of the Malay language found in documents written in an Indic (i.e., Brāhmī-derived) system of writing. This is a positive way of formulating what is in fact a negative definition, aiming to capture the state(s) of the Malay language before it had undergone any influence from Arabic and Persian, i.e., the forms of Malay seen in manuscripts or in inscriptions written in Jawi script, or modern forms of (spoken or written) Malay, all of which are marked by a significant percentage of Arabic loan vocabulary. We see the unarabicised language Old Malay almost exclusively in inscriptions, engraved on stone or metal artefacts from what is now Indonesia, dating from the seventh to the fifteenth century, after which the writing of Malay in Indic script seems to have died out. To my knowledge, just one document from this period falling under the adopted definition has been found within the boundaries of what is now Malaysia, but it is a borderline case. One important Old Malay inscription has been found in the Philippines; a very fragmentary inscription from Singapore also seems to be in Old Malay. It has recently been demonstrated that a manuscript from Kerinci in Sumatra is likely to date to the fourteenth century, and both its language and its script agrees with what we see in inscriptions of this period. So there is every reason to class the language of this manuscript as Old Malay too, and to believe there was once a broad tradition of manuscripts written in this language, among which at least this one has been preserved into the present.

The first systematic philological studies of Old Malay documents, i.e., almost exclusively inscriptions, were undertaken by G. Cœdès (1930) and J.G. de Casparis (1950, 1956). They subjoined word-lists to their editions of a number of Old Malay inscriptions. The Indonesian scholar Boechari (1966, 1979, 1986—all three articles republished in Boechari 2012) edited several further Old Malay inscriptions, but did not pursue the lexicographical effort of his pre- decessors. Since then, quite a few others papers have been published on Old Malay inscriptions, but most of them have failed to throw significant new light on the subject, and do not live up to the standards set by Cœdès, De Casparis and Boechari.

The attraction of these documents lies in the fact that they take us quite far back to the his- torical origins of the Malay language, and the people who spoke, wrote and read it. Systematic and comprehensive study of these documents might be expected to be a well-established field in a nation such as Malaysia, where Malay identity is a key socio-political factor, or in a nation

1. See Kozok 2006, and my review of this book in BKI 166 [1], 2010: 133–138. Since the drafting of the present article in 2011, an important new publication on the same manuscript has been published: Kozok et al. 2015.

It was alas impossible for me to take this work into account in finalising this article for publication.

such as Indonesia, where Malay is admittedly not the basis of national identity, but still the matrix of the national language. Such is, however, not at all the case.

None of the more recent studies treats Old Malay both systematically and comprehensively.

There are three articles (in chronological order by Machi Suhadi 1983, Sukarto Atmodjo 1985 and Richadiana Kartakusuma 1999) focusing only on the Old Malay inscriptions found on Java.

All these articles are inspired by the authors’ surprise that Malay inscriptions were produced in Java. They do not treat these documents against the background of Old Malay inscriptions trans-regionally, and are based on certain presuppositions about the relationship between Malay and Javanese as foreign vs. local languages in Java, that in my view ought to be posed as questions rather than assumed to hold true. By far the most systematic and most informative publication of recent years is the grammatical study by Waruno Mahdi (2005). But this study too limits its discussion to only a group of Old Malay inscriptions, namely those produced in seventh-century Śrīvijaya, and this “for the sake of dialectal uniformity”.

One might debate the desirability of prioritising dialectal uniformity in the description of a language with a very small corpus, rather than coverage of as wide a range of grammatical phenomena as possible. What is clear is that Waruno Mahdi’s choice has led to certain facts that are of primary importance for the history of the Old Malay language being left unmentioned, for no other reason than their occurring in inscriptions falling out of the chosen dialectological purview. A case in point is the ca. ninth-century inscription (figs. 1–3) from the Dieng Plateau in Central Java that presents an inventory of a Śiva temple, and has not received the attention that it deserves among scholars of Malay.

2. Given the uncertain meaning of much of the text, many word divisions and readings are uncertain. Not without a degree of arbitrariness, some particularly uncertain akṣaras are enclosed in (…), while lost ones are restored between […]. The text was first established on the basis of Brandes’ reading (1913, no. XCVI), controlled by using the photo OD 3519 (fig. 1) and inspecting the stone at the National Museum at Jakarta (inv. no. D. 11) on 11/10/2011. The result was then checked against Stutterheim’s revised reading (1938a), and finally against the photos reproduced here as figs. 2 and 3. Stutterheim rightly remarks that the use of punctuation seems unsystematic. While I do not list all variants between published readings and my own, I may point out that it was Schoterman (1981: 432) who proposed the correction of the reading kail laki, unanimously favoured by his predecessors, into kaiṁl laki. He noted that the anusvāra (ṁ) is “clearly visible in the incisions of the inscription” and believed that this spelling is “the result of a very rigorous application of the Skt rules of sandhi, the ‘basic’ form being kain laki”. Although I do not find the anusvāra clear, I provisionally retain Schoterman’s reading.

Homage to Śiva! Property of the god: twenty slaves; ten buffaloes; two platters for beans (?, alas kacaṅan); two wash-basins; four items (batu) of gaṅgun karaha, tatas lnaṅ; five caran- tis; four items of vūṅ; ten items of parsarinasiyan of copper; two taels of gold; four items of jaminiga, neatly arranged (?, caturaṅgaṅ); cloth for a male, one pair; one item of luṅsir-cloth;

two items of vitādi; eight banners; a comb of ivory; a mirror; mica (or: a mirror of mica);

buṅbuṅ vala; two candles; two spoons; four items of jars; two kakyaṅ stones; kettle, one; fire for the venerable one.

3. In the context of a brief overview of the epigraphic record of the Dieng plateau, F.H. van Naerssen (1976:

300) summarises the inscription as follows: “Another inscription, undated and not even mentioning a donor, is an inventory of the “properties of the God” (dewadrawya): twenty slaves, ten buffaloes, two beanfields, two bathing places, gold, mirrors, ivory combs, and so forth. The inscription ends with the word “Ika teja ḍanghyyang [sic]”,

We see in this inscription, besides several lexical items that are unique or very rare and whose meaning I will not try to elucidate here, a grammatical phenomenon that is a great importance for the history of Malay language, namely the use of vatu = batu as numeral classifier—a syntactic particularity to which Stutterheim (1938a) already drew attention.

Also on the lexical level, the Old Malay corpus offers interesting data that one will miss as long as one looks only at the inscriptions of seventh-century Śrīvijaya. In a previous article, I myself mistakenly claimed that the Musi-river inscription that I published contained the “first Old Malay attestation of vapa /bapa/ ‘father’” (Griffiths 2011: 154, n. 25). I realised only later that this word is attested also in the older Sojomerto inscription, in a slightly different spelling.

In lines 8–10 of that inscription, we read:

santanū namāṇḍa bāpaṇḍa bhadravati namaṇḍa °ayaṇḍa

‘his father is called Santanū, his mother is called Bhadravatī’

But there are many other aspects that make it worthwhile studying the Old Malay documents, beyond the history of Malay grammar and lexicon.

A comprehensive approach to Old Malay as a coherent corpus of texts would reveal the existence and persistence of certain expressions over centuries, indicating that Old Malay enjoyed the status of a—to some extent—standardised language. A case in point is the expres- sion sana tatkāla ‘at that time’, used at the transition from dating formula to the principal part of an inscription, with variants such as inan tatkāla and tatkala itu (inscriptions Talang Tuwo, Laguna Copper-Plate, Tandihat I, Padang Roco, Si Topayan II).

A commonality of religious culture between eighth-century Java and contemporary Sumatra is clear from a comparison of the Mañjuśrīgr̥ha and Talang Tuwo inscriptions, both of which comprise praṇidhānas ‘Bodhisattva vows’ and hence seem to belong to a cluster of contempo- rary praṇidhāna inscriptions in Sanskrit found in the Buddhist heartland.

The Mañjuśrīgr̥ha inscription, which dates to 793

and is composed in verse form, moreover requires pushing back the beginnings of Malay literature several centuries further than was recently admitted by W. van der Molen in his article on the Minye Tujuh inscription of 1380

.

In recent years, the discovery of substantial numbers of inscribed tin foils from the Batang Hari River at Muara Jambi, and reportedly now also from the Musi at Palembang, has revealed an almost entirely new genre of inscribed materials that are part of the Old Malay corpus: these were magical spells, and the foils on which they were engraved were folded up to be used as amulets. Anticipating a more comprehensive study, I include here only one specimen (fig. 4).

This small foil (2.5 × 5.1 cm), probably datable in the 1200–1500 range, bears the following text:

which can be translated in all probability as “This is the wealth [literally, “glory”] of the deified ancestors.” The summary partly reflects interpretations relying on Javanese rather than Malay lexicon, and for the final passage relies on a comment by Stutterheim. As far as I know, there is no reason to believe teja could mean ‘wealth’, while in Old Javanese ḍaṅ hyaṅ normally designates priests (see Zoetmulder 1950: 13–14) and it most probably means the same in Old Malay; moreover, the akṣaras read as °ika by Brandes and Stutterheim quite clearly must be °eka. That said, the alternative interpretation I propose here is also problematic.

4. See Tournier 2014. See also Griffiths 2014a: 147–148.

5. Van der Molen (2007: 357): “What amazes me as an outsider to the field of Malay literature is the ease with which such an important text as the Minye Tujuh inscription has been discarded. After all, we are talking about the very beginnings of Malay literature.”

‘Betel, betel … please sever gently, wearing pati cloth, plant yourself, then pluck, plant yourself, don’t be plucked, plant yourself, then pluck the sugarcane grass, the sugar-palm, the bud, the rootless … Protect, protect!’

I assume that tanan diri (2×) is a sanskritic spelling equivalent to tanam diri, and that tanammari is a failed attempt to spell the latter. We find two semantically related verb forms (rtas = modern Malay rətas; gantas = gəntas), and a multitude of plant names that can be iden- tified for instance in Wilkinson’s dictionary (1959):

– sirih: the common word for betel, symbolising a fulfilled promise (betrothal, marriage);

– galagah is gəlaga, gəlagah, “Wild sugarcane grass, Saccharum spontaneum; proverbial for promise without performance”;

– burkat is bərkat, which besides its usual meaning “blessing” (an Arabic loanword) is reported “also as a name for the sugar-palm”;

– kudu is reported to denote a specific herb, but can also mean ‘bud’.

The untranslated words in the spell are obscure and await elucidation.

6. The shape of the opening punctuation sign // (which would be called adəg-adəg in Javanese) is seen on Sumatra also in one of the Sorik Merapi inscriptions (Griffiths 2014: fig. 15b).

7. ya: the presence of i- and u-vocalisation above and beneath what looks like a ya is presumably meant to cancel this akṣara. Such a cancellation strategy is well known from Javanese manuscripts (Acri 2011: 87).

In conclusion, what is needed now is a corpus approach to Old Malay, which requires as first step that we establish which documents belong to the corpus, i.e., which documents satisfy the definition proposed above. The main contribution offered here is an expanded, though still provisional, inventory of Old Malay inscriptions. My inventory, building on the one published by Waruno Mahdi (2005: 185) and retaining its system of indication of dialectally diagnostic prefixes, is shown in the table below. The inscriptions have been arranged by provenance (and chronologically within the groups ‘Java’ and ‘Bangka and Sumatra’) rather than alphabetically.

I have economised on the references, and added a substantial number of items not figuring in Waruno Mahdi’s list.

There are several other items that could arguably be added here: very short inscriptions of as little as one word, not showing any explicit Old Malay morphology, such as the kisut brick from Bumi Ayu (Griffiths 2011: 157) and the inscribed lion sculptures from Padang Lawas (Griffiths 2014: 231–233), but since the corpus of Old Malay inscriptions is linguistically defined, I leave out such items whose linguistic position is not explicitly Malay. Finally, I am at this stage still unable to include the amulet-inscriptions, mentioned above, because I have not yet advanced sufficiently in studying the material that has been brought to my attention since 2014.
